MANCHESTER, March s.-The Guardians
commercial article says: 1.-THE market Is
firm, checking progress in several depart
ments where quantity is concerned, The de-
mand for India Is poor and Will not be mate
rally improved by moderate concession OF
producers. The recent heavy decline in ex-
change brought an important increase OF IN
quiry from native dealers who were deslrous
of placing contracts for forward delivery IN
anticipation of a rise in Rupee prices, which
ordinarily follows drop in exchange. Sub
sequently, however, there was slight reac-
ton in exchange, which caused doubt of an
advance in Rupees and therefore falling on
in inquiry. A moderate business has been
done IN China staples. Occasional orders for
finishing goods have been placed for smaller
foreign markets. There have been few i'm
portant transactions IN export yarn

Green 4 Co.. in their report on cotton fu-
lures, say: ALTHOUGH little shaky at the
outset, the market soon commenced to harden
again and gradually crept upward. making
in all some 6S17 points advance over last even
ing, closing firm at the highest. The move
ment was smaller and less excited, and prob
ably moderate offerings have contributed in
measure to the advance, but the general
temper of operators is toward gain OF conf
dence, and there is evidence of increasing APP
prehension on the short side. Inc foreign
demand continued good. with the continent
